Ashish,

Are your mostly concerned with removing Slony's effect on your DB
tables, or do you want remove the software from your system?

For the former, you can remove slony's effect on the database like this:

slonik_uninstall_nodes | slonik

That assumes you are using the "altperl" tools, which are very nice.

For the second issue, the easiest way would have been to install the
software from a vendor package. However, you did say "from source".

As a general tool on Linux, I use "checkinstall" which creates a package
that can be easily installed, by replacing the "make install" step of
the process.

I agree that in any case, it's a good thing to have documented.
(And I realize I didn't directly solve your problem-- sorry).
